Rashes on my body..is there any over the counter meds?


I started having these rashes on my body. It started on my feet like 2 weeks ago, then I found one on my stomach, last night found 3 on my chest area, underarms, legs and my back. I don't know if their alergies, being as though the weather has been in the 50's and 60's everyday. I'm not sure if its the heat, where I live at the heat feels like its on full blast all the time. They itch and if I scratch them, I make them worst. Any feedback from yahoooers are welcome. Thanks.

Even though you appear to know about winter itch and your temps are a tad higher, that's what it sounds like to me. I had one winter with fam that we all had winter itch. I thought it was a form of ringworm, or mange, from our animals.

The doctor tested, said it just "happens" and it would go away.

Bathing and showering made it worse. Gold Bond powder didn't help and cranking the heat only made it worse.

Get checked by a doc. If it's winter itch, try Nivea Q-10. It helped me. It takes a while. Turn down your heat, wear sweaters, bathe every other day and eat veggies.

Hope it gets better, for you!

Sounds like you may just have heat rash or an allergic reaction. But just to be sure if I was you I would contact my doctor and set up an appt. If the rashes itch I would use some Calamine or Hydrocortizone until the doctor can see you.

Anti-fungal cream!

Trust me, it works!
